24. Where do we start?
• Identify “sub cultures” aligned with Agile
culture
• Look at Problems as point of
improvements
• Try two patterns
• “Test the waters”
• “Do it”
25. Rules of thumb
• Don’t try to explain logically why Agile
works
• Practices are a means to an end
• Ask for help
• Iterate and evolve
26. Control Culture
• “Self organizing team” is not appealing
• “Planning” could be a good starting point
